# Real-world Use Cases

These are patterns we've seen in the wild. Agents use groundcover to debug, monitor, and close the loop.

### Test → Logs → Fix

Cursor generates tests, tags each with a `test_id`, logs them, and then uses groundcover to instantly fetch related log lines.

### Investigate Issues via Cursor

Got a monitor firing? Drop the alert into Cursor. The agent runs a quick RCA, queries groundcover, and even suggests a patch based on recent logs and traces.

### **Support Workflow**

Support rep gets an error ID → uses MCP to query groundcover → jumps straight to the root cause by exploring traces and logs around the error.

### **The Autonomous Loop**

An agent picks up a ticket, writes tests, ships code to staging, monitors it with groundcover, checks logs and traces, and verifies the fix end to end.\
Yes, really. Full loop. Almost no hands.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.groundcover.com/getting-started/groundcover-mcp/real-world-use-cases.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
